Ingredients

  • 1½ teaspoons cumin
  • 1½ teaspoons onion powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 3/4 teaspoon ground chipotle pepper
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 2 tablespoons sunflower oil
  • 1/2 lime juiced
  • 2 pounds boneless skinless chicken breasts

Instructions

  • Preheat your grill to 400°.
  • In a large bowl combine the spices and the oil (and lime juice if using), whisk until combined. Toss the chicken breasts into the spices mixture until coated evenly.
  • Place the chicken on the hot grill grates and grill for 6 minutes. You'll know it's ready to turn when the chicken releases from the grill grates easily. Use tongs to turn the chicken over and continue to grill for 5 to 6 more minutes or until the chicken is fully cooked.
  • Transfer the chicken to a cutting board, tent with piece of aluminum foil and allow the meat to rest for 5 minutes before slicing or chopping.

Notes

Use for seasoning ground beef, turkey or chicken for tacos, nachos, burritos and more!
